Rhubarb Tip

[CaledoniaDreaming]

Now, you've probably all worked this out ages ago but just in case - I realised tonight that it is much, much easier to chop up rhubarb with kitchen scissors than with a knife! You don't get ANY stringiness and it's really fast. Doh.

I'd already bought fresh before I realised Farmfoods had it lol

Great tip, I hate cutting them!

We are allowed them, they are a tolerated food, great for keeping things moving ;-)

Zobo, remember your allowed have diet drinks, they are good for the sweet cravings. Also sf jelly, if you make normal jelly and stir in some ff natural yogurt when it's cooled down, when it sets you have a more satisfying jelly pudding :-D hang in!

I'm trying to grow the stuff - but it's not going too well. Both plants look a bit sickly, yet they were ok earlier in the year. Enough water, plenty manure - not sure what I'm doing wrong. Back to the drawing board!

So that's where I went wrong!! I flipping poured the yog in when jelly was still warm(silly I know!) and it just curdled...did look very nice but it tasted fine!
